Wouxun KG-1000G Plus (KG-1000G+) Chirp Driver Beta 1.0

To load this driver:
Open Chirp -- Click on Help -- Enable Developer Functions
Click on File -- Load Module --- Select this driver from location where you saved the driver.

NOTE: USE ONLY ON THE KG-1000G+

This Driver will communicate with other radios like KG-UV980P, KG-1000G -- However the settings tab will likely blank out as the 1000G+ decodes settings differently.

Wouxun KG-1000G Plus (KG-1000G+) Chirp Driver Beta 2.0

NOTE: USE ONLY ON THE KG-1000G+
This Driver will communicate with other radios like KG-UV980P and KG-1000G -- but there are many settings that are coded differently and will cause problems.

Updates:

  • Limit Upload to Radio routine to only write known channels/settings to memory - unknown memory locations are not written to radio
  • Fix Voice, Ring, TOT, TOA settings to match the radio expectations and to maintain CPS compatibility.
  • Update code to pass required CHIRP testing and PEP8 Format standards.

NOTE: There appears to be issues with the CPS writing incorrect values for some settings (Rpt-Dly (all values), Ring (10s)). So it is possible that when you write with CPS, Chirp may blank out the settings tab. At this point, the issue looks to be a CPS issue and not Chirp. Chirp and the Radio seem to be happy with each other.

To load this driver:
Open Chirp -- Click on Help -- Enable Developer Functions
Click on File -- Load Module --- Select this driver from location where you saved the driver.

Hi Mel,

Any chance you're comfortable enough with git to submit that driver via github along with the image? If not I can apply via hg, but I'm trying to rapidly eliminate that workflow as maintaining the two is laborious.

Also, this driver will need a lot of changes to apply (and work) on the py3 branch, which is all being maintained in github. I'll definitely need you to test it under py3 if you need me to do that conversion for you.

The 1000G+ support request is not a duplicate of the 1000G request #9979. They are separate radios with different functional requirements.
